Jack-A-Roe [Live at The Spectrum, Philadelphia 4/6/82[00:00:00]

Written by：Grateful Dead[00:00:02]

There was a wealthy merchant[00:00:10]

In London he did dwell[00:00:12]

He had a beautiful daughter[00:00:16]

The truth to you we'll tell[00:00:18]

Oh the truth to you we'll tell[00:00:22]

She had sweethearts a plenty and men of high degree[00:00:28]

But none but Jack the sailor[00:00:33]

Her true love ever be[00:00:36]

Oh her true love ever be[00:00:39]

Now Jackie's gone a sailing with trouble on his mind[00:00:45]

He's left his native country and his darling girl behind[00:00:51]

Oh his darling girl behind[00:00:57]

She went down to a tailor shop and dressed in man's array[00:01:37]

She climbed on board a vessel to convey herself away[00:01:42]

Oh convey herself away[00:01:48]

Before you get on board Sir[00:01:54]

Your name we'd like to know[00:01:56]

She smiled on let her countenance[00:01:59]

They called me Jack A Roe[00:02:01]

Oh they called me Jack A Roe[00:02:05]

I see your waist is slender[00:02:11]

Your fingers they are small[00:02:13]

Your cheeks too red and rosy to face the cannonball[00:02:17]

Oh to face the cannonball[00:02:23]

I know my waist's too slender[00:02:28]

My fingers they are small[00:02:30]

But it would not make me tremble to see ten thousand fall[00:02:34]

Oh to see ten thousand fall[00:02:40]

The war soon being over[00:03:36]

She went and looked around[00:03:38]

Among the dead and wounded her darling boy she found[00:03:42]

Oh her darling boy she found[00:03:47]

She picked him up on in her arms[00:03:53]

And carried him to the town[00:03:55]

She sent for a physician to quickly heal his wounds[00:03:58]

Oh to quickly heal his wounds[00:04:04]

This couple they got married[00:04:10]

So well they did agree[00:04:12]

This couple they got married[00:04:16]

So why not you and me[00:04:17]

Oh why not you and me[00:04:22]

Oh why not you and me[00:04:25]
